Aunt Yun was furious. Supported by Madam Feng, she stormed out of the old house.
He turned around at the door and spat, "Bah! What kind of virtuous family is this! Now they're just a poor, destitute peasant family! They don't even respect an eighth-rank county magistrate. You just wait and see!"
Anyway, it's Sanyang Village under her son's jurisdiction. Let's see if she gives them a hard time!
Zhou stretched out her hand without any fear, "You may have a safe journey."
The young man from the Feng family followed behind his grandmother and mother, sighing inwardly, unsure whether to rejoice for the little girl or feel sorry for himself.
Xiao Youran, who had found Yun Tiankuang from the other side courtyard, saw him and rushed over with her third cousin, asking cutely, "Why did everyone leave? Aren't you going to compete anymore?"
Mrs. Zhou quickly pulled the two children back inside and closed the door before saying, "This family is so arrogant. You should stay far away from them in the future. They even want to marry our little Fu Bao off to that boy. They're dreaming!"
Little Youran blinked her big eyes, maintaining her five-year-old persona, and innocently asked, "What does 'dealing with his family' mean?"
Zhou picked up little Youran in her arms. Seeing this soft and adorable little bundle of joy, her heart melted. She laughed and said, "It means engagement! I thought their family was some high-ranking one, but they're just an eighth-rank county magistrate!"
In the past, she wouldn't have even given them a second glance!
Only when one's family becomes a commoner do others dare to come and swagger in front of them.
Yun Tiankuang clenched his fist. "They're dreaming!"
Zhou gently patted his forehead, "What are you saying, swearing?"
But why does this rude language sound so satisfying?
Little Youran fiddled with her fingers and asked cutely, "So, am I locked up? Does that mean they'll nail me in? That'll hurt so much..."
Madam Zhou laughed heartily, hefting little Youran in her arms. "Little Youran, you're our family's darling! How could we possibly betroth you to someone so soon? Not only would your mother object, but I wouldn't allow it either!"
She glanced at Yun Tiankuang, "Look, even your cousin Tiankuang won't agree!"
Yun Tiankuang nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, Xiao Youran is our family's little darling!"
Grandmother had repeatedly told us not to call Xiao Youran "Little Lucky Baby" anymore, so the whole family unanimously changed it to "Little Darling," which couldn't be wrong.
Then, Zhou's gaze shifted back and forth between Tian Kuang and Xiao Youran.
However... they say good things shouldn't go to outsiders, and this little lucky baby is so blessed, maybe... we could reserve him for our own son?!
Xiao Youran looked at her aunt's eyes and secretly thought something was wrong.
In this life, I must never enter the Yun family again.
You need to make plans early!
Once inside, she pulled Su Shi inside, saying, "Mother, I want to whisper something to you!"
The old lady Yun and Li Shi behind them laughed so hard they were bent over, saying, "What a fun little darling!"
Once inside her room, Xiao Youran closed the door and then said seriously to Madam Su, "Mother, I can't be engaged to someone else!"
Mrs. Su had been laughing uncontrollably all the way back, and seeing her little darling's serious expression, she couldn't contain herself any longer. She hugged her tightly and kissed her, "My good baby, do you know what an engagement is? Hahaha—"
Little Youran said confidently, "It's just... I'm promised to someone else! I don't want to be promised to anyone else, I want to stay with Mommy and Brother forever!"
Jiang Youchen, having finished practicing calligraphy, came looking for his mother. Hearing this from outside the window, he coughed and asked, "Mother?"
Madam Su smiled and opened the door. "Chen'er, you've come at the right time. Your sister was just saying that she doesn't want to be engaged!"
Upon hearing that his younger sister was going to get engaged, Jiang Youchen, for some reason, immediately thought of Wen Yuanbai, that pretty boy, and his face darkened. He said, "No way!"
Madam Su was taken aback, "Chen-ge'er?"
Jiang Youchen then realized his mistake and was taken aback. He asked, "Has something happened?"
Then Su told her about Aunt Yun, who had come from who-knows-where.
Jiang Youchen said angrily, "That guy named Feng Ziqing, I hope I never run into him again! If I do, I'll break one of his legs!"
Su slapped him on the forehead, "You've only been learning kung fu for a few days and you're already thinking about hitting people? You've really mastered it?"
Xiao Youran quickly hugged her brother, "No, brother is just like me, we haven't found our dantian yet after studying internal energy cultivation all this time!"
Jiang Youchen: ...
You don't have to mention such a painful thing.
However... it's quite comfortable to be hugged by my younger sister.
He dared not move. Remembering what his younger sister had said before he came in, he quickly said, "Mother, my sister is still so young. What kind of marriage is she to be engaged to? No matter who it is, she is not allowed to be engaged!"
Madam Su was truly at a loss with her two children. "Who said anything about an engagement? It was those shameless people who came to provoke us today, daring to say that our little Ranran would have a hard time finding a husband in the future. That's why I had to scold them away!"
She sneered again, "That aunt Yun Liutang's daughter, I heard that she only married well because of the Marquis's influence. I never thought that the tables would turn and a mere eighth-rank county magistrate would dare to show off in front of my aunt! If this were Dingzhou, I would have them thrown out!"
Little Youran grinned and secretly pulled out her little notebook, making a note: "Mother, Aunt Yun Liutang said bad things about me and was mean to my great-aunt. They'll all... knock out their teeth!"
She originally wanted to say that they would both be "unlucky," but then she remembered that the little notebook that kept accounts would cause the other person to be unlucky without limit and deduct luck points one by one, so she quickly changed it to a specific unlucky thing.
In ancient times, there was no technology to repair teeth, so losing a tooth was truly an unfortunate event that was difficult to remedy!
Mrs. Su chuckled and tapped her forehead. "Baby, don't worry about whether they're unlucky or not! Just don't be shy if you see them again!"
Jiang Youchen nodded, "Mother is a good mother."
Little Youran let go of her brother and rushed into her mother's arms, exclaiming, "Mother is the best mother in the world!"
Madam Su laughed heartily, "You two are both my precious treasures!"
After the mother and her two sons exchanged compliments for a while, Xiao Youran finally remembered the important matter. "Mom, let me tell you, do you know why Aunt Hua's two sons are stupid?"
Su asked in confusion, "Why?"
“Baby, I heard from Stone that Aunt Hua and her husband are cousins. Also, when we were in the capital, Granny Huang and her husband across the street were also cousins. As a result, their eldest son died young, and their youngest son couldn’t straighten his legs.” Little Youran said in a soft and cute voice, “My divine physician father said that if cousins get married, it’s considered incestuous marriage, and the children born are very likely to be unhealthy.”
